About
Dr. Horvath is the Founder and Executive Director of the Ottawa Centre for Resilience, a mental health centre for childhood trauma & dissociation, attachment, adoption, and high-conflict families for Ottawa and surrounding areas. We pride ourselves on returning calls within 24 hours and ensuring clients speak to a clinician within 1 week. We currently have IMMEDIATE TREATMENT AVAILABILITIES.
Our clinicians have additional training in a variety of evidence-based trauma-informed approaches for treating children, youth, adults, and families, particularly psycho-biologically and somatic based approaches, such as EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Brainspotting.
We work with those struggling with disruptive behaviours, self-regulation, attachment, and sexual behaviour issues related to histories of adverse childhood experiences, complex developmental trauma, adoption related issues, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, and involvement with the child welfare and/or criminal justice systems.
We also work with issues related to divorce including: co-parenting, high-conflict families, and reunification.
